What exactly is hidden dock for a theme mean?

Hey guys and girls. Im somewhat of a newbie but got the general idea of most things blackberry and theme related. I was searching for some cool themes and let me say, found alot on the site. But during my search I read one of the forum replies where someone suggested to find some hidden docks or hidden dock themes where it was pretty cool to use. If I understood correctly it sounded like there are a few hidden dock downloads and if I grab one I could use it within a theme to make it a little more cool on an existing theme.
Could someone clarify for me?

Thanks in advance and love the site!

I think hidden docks are only available for the Blackberry Storm.

No, there are hidden dock themes available for all the phones that I know of, with the exception of the new Tour.

Hidden docks aren't used within a theme, they are a type of theme. What they do is hide the dock of primary icons until you scroll over them. People like them because they can hide their primary icons away from their screen so they don't block their wallpaper. Also used are blank homescreen themes, which are nothing at all on the screen (not even when you scroll) and you have to push the blackberry button to get to your icon screen.
